Solid state fermentation of banana peels by Bacillus spp for pectinase production was investigated using standard methods. Optimum conditions that affect the growth and microorganism such as incubation temperature ( 35OC), inoculum size 3.00mL), period (24h), pH (7), substrate concentration (30g) additional nitrogen source (0,30%) were determined employed in . Results enzyme measured activity a...

About thirty-five percent of coffee pulp waste is pectin. It may potentially be a source to used in the bioprocessing industry. For example, it can as substrate produce pectinase from microorganisms under solid-state fermentation (SSF). In this investigation, an isolated fungus VTM4 with density 10 7 spores/mL was grown on medium-based, and after 0-168 hours incubation at 30 °C, activity detect...

A degumming approach is used in this paper with alkalophilic pectinase-producing bacteria (APPB) and two sources of water solvents to address the existing conventional retting complexities kenaf. The incorporation APPB was confirmed based on their feasibilities multiple cell-wall-degrading enzymatic delicacy. combinations seawater offered achievements within six-day non-sterile conditions. Thes...

Pectinases are widely used in food processing, textile and other allied industries. Cassava peels generated from cassava processing outfits constitutes one of the major environmental pollutions Nigeria there is need to find alternative economic value waste instead indiscriminately disposing them as currently done. This study reports optimization pectinase production Bacillus subtilis PSE-8 usin...

Aspergillus spp. are widely spread plant pathogens. In several kinds of fruit, especially in apple and peach, aspergillus rot is one of the postharvest desease in fruit, but the infection mechanism is not known. The degradation of cell walls by pathogens is significant in primary infection and afterinfection, and plays an important role in the advancement of mycelium into the host plant and the...

As natural fibers, low-cost biosorbents have proven to be an effective and clean tool remove textile dyes from wastewater. In this research, the Reactive Black 5 removal ability of original enzyme-modified fibers were assessed. A fiber extracted a Colombian fique plant (Furcraea sp.) was employed. The effects protonation with different solvents dye solution pH on RB5 evaluated. biosorbent chemi...

Genes coding for an endo-pectate lyase, an exo-pectate lyase, and an endopolygalacturonase of Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora Ecc71 were cloned in Escherichia coli HB101, using the cosmid pHC79. The products of the cloned pectinase genes paralleled their counterparts in strain Ecc71 in isoelectric mobility, mode of substrate degradation, and ability to macerate potato tuber tissue.

Activities of twelve hydrolytic enzymes in the digestive tract of young rabbits before weaning (4 weeks old) and adult rabbits (3 months old) were measured. The principal digestive enzymes in both groups of rabbits appeared to be amylase (EC 3.2.1.1), maltase (EC 3.2.1.20), pectinase (EC 3.2.1.15) and proteinases. The stomach of young rabbits contained most of the lipolytic activity and 45.7% o...
